    I've been to matches with Wayne and can honestly say he's twice the supporter some of them are.

    Some of the threads on there are just embarrassing tbh. Posters really need to give their heads a shake before posting never mind after

    Spot on. We are where deserve to be after the shambles of the last 4 years or so.. We have no divine right to beat the likes of Fleetwood, Wigan, Burton, Wimbledon, Mansfield, Wycombe etc. Some of our so called fans belittle these clubs which I despise. Just because we have a big stadium and large support means **** all when its 11 against 11 on the pitch.. I hate to say this but we are now an establlshed Division one team. And as for criticising Johnson, he hasn't had a chance with the cancellations etc etc. I despair sometimes

    You've just got to look at who the OP is to dismiss it as nothing more than a wind up

    Bumblebee came over here, started the same shyte and a Mod crept up and shot him in the back of the head ...

    ... so he went back to RTG claiming he'd been banned for daring to voice a different opinion.

    An absolute knacker.

    That’s the point though mate. A message board is about discussing pertinent points, you have to be a pretty sad bastard to get kicks out of that sort of attention. I come on here and there for news mostly and I have never, no matter how bored I have been, decided to “**** it, I’m going on RTG to wind some ****ers up”.
    Imagine living life like that

    We can joke about stuff like this, and sometimes despair but you know what I'm starting to think more and more lately that all this stuff over the years about safc fans being difficult and demanding from previous managers isn't aimed at the home support who are the real fans IMO but it's aimed at the likes of rtg and social media so called fans who post absolute ****ing dreadful ****e

    Trouble is with social media etc. Anyone from outside looking in at RTG would think the views posted over there represent the views of all SAFC fans, which of course they don't. Im pretty sure that any opposition fan that reads RTG will think that we are a bit arrogant etc etc. Im sure the vast majority of SAFC fans aren't.

    Having said that, I still make the occasional post over there, its entertaining, no dispute. But, **** me, there's some nasty pieces of work over there

    My account was disabled a few weeks ago "Mr chuckles" Over there tbh I probably deserved it because I was abusive to the rat but I'm glad now because I can't stand the place the mods are a joke and have let the place go to absolute ****e

    I get alerts when I start a new Google search.

    They're quite often 'Johnson no better than Parkinson' type of things. When I click on them it takes me to the Echo or Chronicle and quotes from 'supporters' on RTG or Twitter.

    The papers quote them as if they're Alex Ferguson instead of some dullard with a grudge.

    It's lazy journalism but we're stuck with it.

    I avoid getting involved in the oneupmanship but do read most of them. If you can step aside and just view from afar it is entertaining at times. But annoying as well. Occasionally I have bitten, mainly post match on a saturday night, after a few beers, which is a bit crap

    One of the things that your comment tells me is that the majority who comment like that rarely attend matches. I know we can't at present because of covid, but there's a massive difference watching a game live compared to on TV. Watching a game live in the ground let's you see much more about movement off the ball, organisation without the ball, tracking back, covering space and pace. Different sport all together, but watching athletics on TV doesn't give you the same idea of actually how fast track athletes are running until you're actually there in person. The same thing applies in football, but more so in how players read the game, including how the opposition look to deal with someone.

    It is mental like. I know I've been moaning about that Mary Hinge knacker (think it's just him and Vauxie I've got on ignore) but I'm sure I heard he's a grown bloke with bairns. I can sort of understand a 16 year old virgin mistakenly thinking a ****e wind up persona is funny, but a fully grown bloke? I mean he probably goes to work all normal, talks to the kids, helps out in the house. Then thinks "right, time to type like a ****ing moron and wind people up online". I just don't understand it at all.

    For me these places are like a pub when you can't be around other fans, I'll go in, have a bit crack about football, maybe some off topic stuff, but it's always me . If people meet me off here they'll find I'm exactly like I am here. Why the **** would I force myself to put on an act? And if you start one, it's ****, and everyone tells you it makes you sound like a boring knacker, why the **** would you keep doing it? Last thing I'd want is people repeatedly telling me I'm a boring ****er. And as Smug says, he's actually capable of a decent discussion when he wants, so why the ****ing act. It's absolutely mental

    There was a Mag on there called The Fish who acted out the persona of an upper class toff. He'd use impressive sounding words, often inappropriately, and kept it up for years.

    I caught him out one day, and he dropped the act. When I asked why he'd stopped with all the pompous drivel he said that it had 'served it's purpose' ...

    ... the sad thing was that he actually believed there was a purpose.

    In reality the only person he ever fooled was himself <doh>

  18. I've stopped going over there,it's a depressing place. The usual suspects already bitching that Johnson is just another Parkinson,others who are still saying that KLD is just Donald's puppet and that nothing in the way the club is run is going to change. Most of the people posting this ****e are those who scorned there was a takeover happening at all.
    Now I get that as a group of fans we're all very miserable and low in our current position,but I just see posts like those as unreasonable,unnecessary nonsense,which,of course,can't be successfully argued against until time has taken its' course.
    I'm just not going to be dragged down by it any more.

    And that's always the tactic.

    Claim there is no takeover.

    As soon as you're proved wrong claim it's a share shuffle.

    As soon as you're proved wrong throw Rodwell into the mix.

    Ad infinitum ....
